Google and all that stuff

Dear Friends and followers in the EU
I believe Google may have added a message regarding its use of cookies and data on this blog... I have tried to check but as I am in Australia even after taking their suggested way of checking it doesn't appear.
So, I am using a template provided by Blogger which is part of the Google group of companies. I do not share any data or contact details myself.

As I do not use their Ad function I believe I do not need to any more.

I don't see the ad and have disregarded doing that myself, I don't use ads and I don't share info either, funny we need to do all this while all these other companies such as twitter, fb, and google are storing oodles of info on us without our knowledge and sharing it

Hi Anna,I just read something from Google about this on my blog dashboard. I can't see any message from them on my blog about using cookies and so on, and I've checked with two different browsers. I don't know if this shows up in our part of the world, or only in Europe????

Hi PeterYes they have just put out a blanket message with no regard as to whether or not you are in the EU.From what I can see it is only a problem if you use their Ad function and in the EU.I'm sure we will be fine with this but then they have started to mess with Blogger too... they obviously haven't heard that is something isn't broke then don't Fix it!
